Because another company with inflated internet priced shares may buy it out. Diller's company wasn't inflated enough.

<LCOS> Because it went from about 140 to 80 when the deal was announced. The reason it might not go through is because CMGI and other large shareholders of LCOS believe they can get a better price. On the business side (you all know how I like to think/discuss this) the USAI/LCOS deal is very interesting because of the very real world price paid for LCOS. Anyways, IMO, the worst thing that can happen to LCOS stock right now is if the deal goes through, at which point it's worth $90. If the deal doesn't go through, it will probably go back to 140/150. TJ says 200, but I'd have to see it to believe it. It's kind of like buying a lottery ticket for $1. If you "lose", you get $1; If you "win", you get $1.50.
